St John the Baptist Catholic Church Mission and Vision
Bringing Jesus Christ to ALL, through: Worship and Liturgy
Outreach Our Parish School
Hospitality Adult & Child Faith Formation
Jews and Samaritans were of a different ethnic mix and were religious adversaries – a volatile mix. It was not surprising that Samaritans refused Jesus entry to their villages ‘because he was making for Jerusalem’, the Jewish centre of worship.
What is surprising is that after several years with Jesus, James and John had not absorbed his teaching and practice of non-violence in dealing with enemies. They wanted to annihilate those they considered to be heretics. We are told that Jesus immediately ‘turned and rebuked them’.
How many times must the Risen Lord have ‘turned and rebuked’ Christians for their murderous dealing with religious adversaries over the centuries? How often, in our own time, is He rebuking those seeking to wipe out those of ‘heretical’ views, either outside or within their own religious tradition? How must He be weeping at the genocidal carnage being wreaked on his own disciples, and those of other faiths, in the religious terror of the Middle East?
We might pause for a moment to seek forgiveness for the times we have wished a personal or larger-scale enemy to be done away with – lest the rebuke of the Prince of Peace ring in our self-righteous ears.
Thank you to the Parish Pastoral Council members, the school community & all those parishioners who helped to make the Novena Masses & Sunday’s special event, such a wonderful celebration for our Parish. It was wonderful to have the children and parents from our school participate so beautifully in the Mass.
